Blower Functioning Intermittently

The hitting the glove box was what I used also till I replaced the resistor and then still had to use it till replaced the motor.

Next time when your motor is not blowing, go ahead and hit your glove box pretty hard with your hand. If it starts blowing again you have a motor that is going out. My motor seemed fine too but it was in fact a slowly dying motor that occasionally would not work right.

Learned something new here.... the glove box...

I'm having a custom aluminum radiator built ...should I consider replacing the blower motor prophylactically when I get it installed ?
I have an '01, 77k miles.
If so, OEM or aftermarket?

Does the blower motor have something to do with the radiator? I thought it only forced air out of the vents...?
